[Verse 1] We’re family — not by blood, by choice, Different minds, but a shared voice. Friends who stick through the everyday, Even when the shine has worn away. We tease, we clash, we get annoyed, Say things sharp we didn’t enjoy. Still the thread between us stays, Doesn’t snap on careless days. [Pre-Chorus] It bends, it holds, it learns to last, Built from more than just the past. Not perfect, no — but strong and true, Because it’s me and them and you. [Chorus] We’re family — chosen, tried, Side by side on the same ride. We fall out, then laugh again, That’s how it works when it’s real between friends. Disappointed? Yeah, sometimes. But we still find fun in the meantime. We’re family — not by chance, But by staying when we can. [Verse 2] Some stay quiet, some never stop, Jokes fly fast, then suddenly drop. Different tempos, different ways, Same room, different waves. We don’t love the same old songs, But we listen, learn, pass them along. Teach a little, borrow too, Find new angles, something new. [Pre-Chorus] Different strengths, familiar flaws, We don’t hide them, we don’t pause. We lift where others feel weak, Say “you’ve got this” — and mean it. [Chorus] We’re family — chosen, tried, No rulebook, no disguise. We argue, mend, then carry on, Still together when the noise is gone. Not the same, and that’s the point, Different sparks, one joint. We’re family — here to stay, In our own imperfect way. [Bridge (Roll Call / Identity)] So who are we when you ask the room? It’s Futi and Zo — setting the groove. Chy writing lines, turning moments to sound, Tosko steady when things spin around. Mana loud, Mana wild, Mana true, Different pieces — one chosen crew. [Bridge] And Uma’s part of us too, Even when she’s far away, Some hearts don’t need a room, Some love just comes and stays. Not always here, but always known, Still family — still home. [Final Chorus] We’re family — not by blood, By trust, by time, by giving a damn. We don’t break easy, don’t disappear, We’re still right here, year after year. No promise made just to look good, Just showing up — because we would. We’re family — and that’s enough. [Outro Chorus] Family by choice, wherever we roam, Some walk beside us, some drift and come home. [Outro] (Spoken / soft) Not because we have to. Because we choose to.
